If you
haven’t visited my blog, Finger Painting Fingers, you may not know about my love of
indie polishes.I love the unique
variety of indie polishes and I admire the ladies who are the creative forces
behind each brand I have come to love.

When I first heard about KBShimmer, I was like
many other lacquer loving girls needing my next glitter fix.I was drawn to her gorgeous collection of
nail polish.I didn’t realize that
Christy started her business with hand crafted bath and body products.Christy is a crafty girl after my own heart
and after perusing her Etsy shop, I can tell you I am excited to try more than
just her polish!Those soaps, bath bombs
and sugar scrubs and lip balms look amazing!

When
you visit KBShimmer’s website you will read this about the brand:

“KBShimmer
is a woman owned small business run by soap maker, Christy Rose. All her
life Christy has had a love of crafting and creating. Christy poured her
first batch of cold process soap while still in high school, and after taking a
break for school and family, has been creating handmade bath and body for sale
since 2008. Each product in the KBShimmer line is made by hand, and
slight variances may occur as we are not a machine stamping out identical
products, that is the beauty of handmade.”

I was lucky enough to get my first KBShimmer
polish in a swap.I had wanted it for a
long time.I love any polish that
reminds me of water.I guess when you
live in the desert Southwest, water becomes something of a novelty.Shipwreck, well, the name alone should tell
you why I wanted it!

Shipwreck is a teal blue jelly base with a mix of
different sizes of hex and micro glitters in purple, aqua, green, blue and holographic
gold.It really does look like cold
ocean water in the bottle. I layered Shipwreck over Maybelline ColorShow Blue
Blowout, which is an icy blue metallic.

Take a look!

Ahhhh!! Look at all of those amazing glitters,
both on my nails and in the bottle!Don’t you just love how Blue Blowout shines through Shipwreck to add
some extra metallic shimmer?

I used two coats of Shipwreck over two coats of
Blue Blowout.I finished with a coat of
Poshe’ Super Fast Dry top coat.The
formula of Shipwreck was a little on the thick side.I had some trouble getting it smooth at
first, but I ended up mixing it a little more and that seemed to help the
consistency.I was happy with the
distribution of the glitters despite the thickness of the base.
